Old stuff [updated]
UncategorizedAs you can see, there’s now a whole bunch of old photos dated 2010 and much older. I just imported my old Blogger site ; WordPress is amazing for this! Now if only I could do the same to import my Tumblr site, I’d be a happy camper! Any tips are welcome!
[Update] Thanks to the excellent tumblr2wp I was able to merge my Tumblr blog to this one too. Years of stuff, all in one place. Neat.
Why authorities fear Anonymous
linksAnonymous demonstrators in Madrid (Reuters)
Anonymous began as a small group protesting internet censorship, using novel ways designed to grab press attention. As idealists swelled the ranks, though, its unusually open and officially leaderless structure allowed it to be penetrated by cyber criminals and career hackers, who launched direct attacks on law enforcement. This was a long way from the chatter on teen-oriented message boards inside the 4chan website, which was founded in 2003. (The name “Anonymous” comes from the identity given by default to anyone posting comments there.)
